SERVPRO Can Prevent Future Mold Damage in Your Amherst Home?
Indoor mold removal in Amherst is important to prevent possible health effects on the occupants. Since we understand the risks of coming into contact with the mold, our SERVPRO technicians wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment during the remediation process. For mold to start growing, its spores must come into contact with sufficient moisture. Since the spores are almost everywhere, stopping the water is key. While it is possible to come across visible mold, we have the experience to identify invisible mold which might be hiding in hard-to-access areas.
How Our SERVPRO Technicians Stop The Moisture Sources During Mold Remediation in Amherst?
Before our SERVPRO technicians can start doing mold removal in your Amherst property, we must identify the origin of the moisture causing its growth. We can check the windows, roof, and building envelope for possible leaks. Once we identify the sources, we fix the leaks immediately. To prevent chances of future leaks, we eliminate wet spots and condensation points by performing the following:
- Vent appliances that generate moisture to the outside area
- We make sure the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning drip pans do not have any obstructions and are clean
- Maintain an indoor relative humidity of between 30-50%
- Do piping insulation
- Ensure high occupancy areas have adequate ventilation
